Buy a Brick
- One of the great ways to support Railyard Dogs - and make the Railyard Dog Park a reality - is to buy a brick to be placed underneath the park's cabana. Each brick can be customized and is a wonderful way to say thanks to a friend, loved one or pet.
Railyard Dogs
- In July of 2004, a group of downtown Denver residents joined together with the Denver Health Department to educate dog owners in Commons Park about Denver’s leash laws. Every dog owner asked about the possibility of an off-leash area somewhere downtown.
That same group of residents decided to form Railyard Dogs with a simple goal: finding a place for a dog to be a dog.
Today, that group is comprised of a group of residents, with advisory committees including Councilwoman Judy Montero, Animal Control Director Doug Kelley, and Parks and Recreation Manager Tom Hawkey.
